Frightening to think that the world's 'best team' can put 50 on the 'third best' like that. Yes, Aussie's were poor but its they were comprehensively outplayed in every single department.

As an English supporter I'm getting so sick and tired of NZ routing Australia constantly during these Championships, the result is seemingly never in doubt. Aussies just don't have enough world class players. Sure Folau would walk into a World XV, would any of the other Aussies? For NZ you'd easily have Woodcock, Retallick, McCaw, Read, Cruden (?), and the Smiths (at least!)

Kearney and Hogg will travel nonetheless so it's all up for grabs there. Big fan of Launchbury but experience counts. If PoC matches up next HC Semi Final time he'll certainly make a headache for selectors.
